Yealink MVC-BYOD-Extender – BYOD Extender for Room Systems

Product Overview

The Yealink MVC-BYOD-Extender is an accessory that lets a Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) system switch between the native room experience and a bring-your-own-device meeting on any UC platform. A user plugs the extender's USB cable into a laptop and starts a video meeting on whatever service they choose, using the room's existing camera, audio, and controls. It is a plug-and-play addition for MVC and ZVC packages where audio and video are integrated in the UVC40 and UVC84/86. For organizations running mixed conferencing platforms, the extender turns a dedicated room into a flexible, multi-platform space.

Product Description

The MVC-BYOD-Extender supports the transformation between Microsoft Teams Rooms and different UC platforms, so a guest or employee can run a Zoom, Webex, or other meeting on a laptop while still leveraging the room's professional devices. Users connect the extender's USB cable to their laptop, and the room's camera and audio carry the BYOD session immediately. There is no driver installation or reconfiguration required, keeping the workflow simple for non-technical participants.

During a BYOD session, participants keep the immersive video and audio of the room's dedicated devices, easy meeting controls on the MTouch II touch panel, and wireless content sharing through the WPP20 presentation pod. The extender supports up to 100 meters of cable endurance, giving integrators flexibility in routing between the table connection point and the room compute. It ships with a 7.5m CAT5e cable and includes a 2-year hardware warranty. The accessory is intended for MVC and ZVC packages built on the UVC40 and UVC84/86 cameras.
